Trivia:
The shot where the 747 swerves on the ground at Ramstein was performed at half speed. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The base at which the pilots attempt to land after the hijacking is identified as "Ramstein Air Force Base". The actual name is "Ramstein Air Base"; "Air Force Base" is only used for installations in the United States. moreQuotes:

An Action movie is made to entertain, and should always be taken at face value. With this in mind Air Force One hits the mark, despite some minor flaws it still delivers tension, drama and action in abundance.
The cast is strong and full of believable characters, the story is compelling and the traditional dose of sentiment is added sparingly and to good effect. Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman both put in solid performances and they are well supported by the likes of Glenn Close and Wendy Crewson.
Overall Air Force One is an safe bet for the average movie fan and should entertain most, without ever really excelling.
7/10
